- Things took an awkward turn when Kabogo, an independent candidate, vehemently endorsed Uhuru Kenyatta to gain some votes for himself

- All this took place while Waititu watched helplessly

Jubilee politics on Friday, August 4 took an awkward turn after Kiambu arch rivals William Kabogo and Jubilee candidate Ferdinand Waititu shared a podium.

Kiambu county, which is largely a Jubilee zone, was graced by the President as the campaign trail for both NASA and the ruling party hit the homestretch.

While the campaign was largely successful, things got a little awkward when Kabogo, who was some months ago a Jubilee rebel, openly declared his support for the President in the presence of his rival Waititu.

Kabogo was comprehensively beaten by Kabete MP Ferdinand Waititu in the Jubilee primaries – a turn of events which Kabogo was quick to dispute.

The governor, in April, conceded defeat, saying that “people of higher power” did not want him in power.

Fast Forward to three days to the polls and things seem to have takjen a dramatic turn as Kabogo seems to be openly supporting the very leaders he ditched after primaries, perhaps in an attempt to gain more numbers on his side.

All this took place with Waititu awkwardly standing next to his arch rival Kabogo, here is the video:
